Malayan have quickly become my family's new favourite takeaway. Seriously impressive food and lovely staff at a fair price. Even on New Year's Eve, the food was spot on and didn't take long to collect. Worth a try if you're in the area!

Family meal Thursday evening. We tried this Maylayan to see what it was like. The place was cold, the service was slow, and only two groups in eating, the bill was a bit too much. However the food was outstanding, the flavours and texture of the food was beautiful. Intense spices blended together to make a superb dish. Just a few small changes and it would be great.

Got a takeaway from here. Used to be called Cookson spice years ago. Absolutely beautiful food. Had a set meal and also got a Special Karahi. Highly recommended will be back at the weekend for more

Delicious food, well presented, lovely staff. Nice to have another great Indian rest in Chester, this one takes the biscuit though. Boys loved their first restaurant curry.

Great friendly staff. Amazing food. Mixed kebab starter is definitely worth trying if you visit. 2 of us ordered 2 mixed kebabs, 2 currys, 1 rice, 1 naan, 1 side and we couldn't finish it all. With 2 drinks it came to £50, which for the quality and quantity and service it was definitely worth it. A nandos is about £20 without a starter for instance. Staff were nice and packed up what we didnt finish for us to take home.
